Passion
07-04-2002 1:13 A.M, Curium Beach, Cyprus

Beneath the blanket of stars, wet sand in my feet 
The sound of the sea -- crashing in my ears 
The passion, the frenzy; of longing embrace 

The waves rushing to meet the shore,
               I see love unbridled like never before….

The wait is over -- the lovers meet 
With no one as witness; Save the stars and the breeze..
And walking alongside; My solitude and me  

My dream lies shattered -- the mirage disappears
Mocked by the moon and driven to tears,
               I open my eyes and feel you near ….

You hold my hands and touch my face 
Of all the pain I felt within, there’s not a single trace.
 
You still do it to me -- After all these years,
Put a smile on my lips, Calm my fears….. 

As I lie down drenched, lost in your thoughts 
You rush into my arms, along with the waves...
Engulf me with so much love, wash away the pain . 

Images flash in my eyes; Of many years past -- the cool summer rain,
The moment I saw you there, I knew I'd never,
Ever be the same again.
